Hello,

Upon looking at my friends feed (http://www.socializr.com/updates), I can see that someone has created an event. But when I click on it, I get the message 'Sorry, you don't seem to be invited to this event.'

If this is truly a private event, it probably shouldn't be displaying in my friend feed.

Hi Mike,

Your friend probably created a public event initially which triggered a friend feed update, and then later changed it to private. Hence you still see the event in your feed, but it is not accessible to view.

Although a user will never be able to view a private event that they were not invited to, you shouldn't be seeing any feed updates for private events, even if they were originally created as public. This is a known issue and it is on our to do list to fix.

thanks for reporting,

Boris

Awesome, thanks!

It's worth noting that they also created an event, then deleted it... but it also appears on my friend feed.
